Chapter 44: Chen Lin's Mission

Chen Lin finished talking about the plan of the Xia Dynasty, the old man was very surprised, with most of his life's experience, he intuitively believed that the plan of the Xia Dynasty was feasible. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info he was surprised by his youngest son's plan on the one hand, and at the careful thinking of the summer dynasty on the other.

Xia Jinxian is a decisive person, and he decided to send Xia Yuhe and Chen Lin and others to the United States.

After Chen Lin and others set off, Xia Jinxian immediately set about selling real estate and scattered industries, and at the same time, transferred his chemical factories, textile factories and other entities to Chongqing.

Chen Lin and others came to the United States, and with the help of Xia Yu, they registered a pharmaceutical company, and registered a patent for a drug in the United States Patent Office, and registered a resounding trademark "penicillin" for this drug!

Penicillin is penicillin. Penicillin antibiotics is a general term for a large class of antibiotics in the β-lactam class and is the most famous antibiotic class of antibiotics during World War II.

Today's elementary school students know that tuberculosis is not a terminal disease, but before penicillin was introduced, getting tuberculosis was basically a death sentence.

The wounded in the war are very susceptible to infection due to the environment, and suffer from abscesses and sepsis, which have a very high mortality rate. Penicillin saved the lives of countless patients in World War II. It has also cured countless tuberculosis patients.

Penicillin was first invented on February 13, 1928 by Fleming, a professor of bacteriology at St. Mary's School of Medicine, University of London, for which he later won the Nobel Prize. However, for a long time, the technology was not up to par, and it was not until 1941 that it began to be put on the market.

Xia Chao extracted technical data from the brain database and plagiarized mature production technology. However, Xia Chao has no psychological burden at all, because of his plagiarism, penicillin is listed 4 years ahead of schedule, how many patients can be saved? The merit is immeasurable.

Anyone who knows a little about the history of World War II knows how high the price of penicillin is. During the war, there were countless wounded, penicillin was in short supply, and the price on the black market was even higher than the price of gold, and even then it was difficult to buy.

This is a wonderful opportunity for Xia Chao to make a fortune.

However, there is another major obstacle to producing penicillin in the United States: the U.S. Drug Administration does not agree.

As we all know, penicillin is allergic to some people, and in severe cases, it can kill people. In the United States, someone died because of this. As a result, penicillin is banned by the FDA.

Chen Lin graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, a prestigious medical school. On this day, she and Xia Yu came to their alma mater.

Chen Lin's mentor, Robertson, was in his 50s, tall, with a half-foot-long beard, and was a straightforward and enthusiastic old man. Seeing Chen Lin who suddenly appeared, he was very happy. He stretched out his hands and hugged Chen Lin. Then he said, "Oh, my child, how could you suddenly come to see me, I am so happy." ”

After Chen Lin greeted him, she said her intention: she wanted to use the affiliated hospital of the University of Wisconsin-Madison to conduct a clinical trial of penicillin and promote the use of penicillin.

Robertson's head shook like a rattle when he heard her. He said, "No, my child, this will never work. Penicillin's medicinal properties are unstable and will kill people, which is absolutely not okay. ”

Chen Lin said: "You know the efficacy of penicillin, but it has side effects for some people, and I have found a way to determine that it is suitable to use it." ”

Robertson was surprised and said, "My child, are you telling the truth?" ”

Chen Lin explained to him how to perform skin tests on people who use penicillin.

Robertson stood up excitedly, and he said: "My child, if this is true, it will be a great miracle, and you will be awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine for it, I promise!" ”

He walked around the room excitedly, shook his head again, and said, "But how to test the skin test method you said?" This matter will be dangerous, and if clinical trials are conducted, the reputation of the University of Wisconsin-Madison will be greatly damaged. Besides, I'm afraid I can't find patients who are willing to go through clinical trials. ”

Chen Lin said: "Teacher, you just need to help me contact the affiliated hospital, and I will arrange other things." ”

Soon after, the Associated Press, Newsweek, and the New York Times, as well as a large number of news organizations in the United States, including the British National News Agency and the Times Branch, all received news that the University of Wisconsin-Madison would conduct an important medical trial at its affiliated hospital. This trial, if successful, would be one of the greatest medical trials in human history.

Mark, a well-known reporter for the Associated Press, was writing a press release about the drug trade in his office, and his boss, Smith, the head of the news group, came in and said, "Go to the press conference at the University of Wisconsin-Madison." ”

Mark said: "It's just an ordinary medical experiment, what's worth reporting? ”

"No, the experiment itself may not be anything, but the people who conducted it are newsworthy," Smith said. ”

Mark asked, "Who is it that will be in the news?" ”

"The person who conducted the experiment was a beautiful woman from Eastern China, who not only graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with a master's degree, but also the daughter of Chinese general Chen Cheng," Smith said. Such a person should be something to watch, right? ”

Mark raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, I'll go." ”

The reason why Chen Lin held such a high-profile press conference was because Xia Chao gave her a plan for the promotion of new drugs, which was, to put it bluntly, hype.

For this new product planning project, Chen Lin has no experience in business, although he thinks it is new, but he does not think there is anything special. Xia Yu's feelings are very different, he has been in business for many years, and he has never heard of such an amazing propaganda method, but he thinks it is definitely a brilliant idea. He couldn't understand more and more how his younger brother, who didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, became so powerful.

The press conference was held as scheduled.

In the conference room of the University of Wisconsin-Madison Hospital, dozens of reporters from major news agencies were already in place. "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the University of Wisconsin-Madison Hospital, where you will witness a medical miracle," said a spokesperson for the hospital. Now, I have invited Miss Chen Lin, a beautiful lady from the East who graduated from our school. ”

With not-so-enthusiastic applause, a beautiful oriental woman came to the podium. Her beauty and elegance won a burst of amazement, and there was a buzz at the scene, and the reporters immediately felt that the trip was worthwhile, and the applause became enthusiastic.

What happened next was a great surprise to all the reporters.
